624 Can Strangers Kiss?
Chapter 624 Can strangers kiss
The royal banquet ended in midnight according to the rules.
After the year was over, fireworks were set off in the city. Everyone walked out of the Chunjing Hall and stood under the eaves to watch.
The rain has stopped.
Xue Mei and Xue Chi stations were slightly behind. At this time, they both remembered the New Year's Eve of the Princess's Mansion.
Xiao Wu, who is still in the capital, has already got married.
I wonder how he celebrated the New Year?
He probably wouldn't go back to the Yongning Marquis' Mansion. I don't know if he went to the second uncle's house or took his biological mother, Aunt Zhou, out, and lived alone.
Xue Mei thought again that during the Chinese New Year, the Liang royal family also had the same rules, and both Xiao Jingcheng and Xiao Mingyu had to go to the palace to stay up to the New Year.
They both would make excuses and run out secretly.
Thinking of this, Xue Mei glanced at Xiao Jingcheng.
Xiao Jingcheng has been watching her.
The two of them collided with their eyes, and fireworks were burning in their eyes, and their eyes were extremely bright in their eyes.
Xue Mei smiled at him.
Xiao Jingcheng didn't laugh, but he was filled with ease and joy.
After midnight, the emperor first said he was tired and went to bed, and the others left one after another.
There are many people who want to leave the palace.
Xue Mei followed Xue Chi and rushed in front.
Unexpectedly, when at the entrance of the palace, King Jing and his wife were waiting for them with their children, and invited Xue Mei and Xue Chi to the extremely luxurious and spacious carriage in their palace.
No matter how spacious the carriage is, it is like that, and it cannot squeeze out four adults and three children.
Xue Mei then said, "There is time, let's talk tomorrow. The children are sleepy, so you can go back first."
Princess Jing is a very transparent person who can't pull and pull. He nodded after hearing this: "We are a little tired."
They left first.
Halfway through the way, someone stopped the carriage from Prince Zhuang's Mansion. Xue Chi sighed softly as the carriage stopped.
He got out of the car.
After a while, the curtain of the car was lifted, and the person who came up had changed.
Xue Mei was very distressed. She was dozing off at this point and opened her eyes when she heard this.
"...Is there something wrong?" She asked Xiao Jingcheng with a smile.
Xiao Jingcheng: "What did the emperor ask you for?"
He was also well-informed in Chu State. The emperor's private search for Xue Mei had already reached his ears.
There are probably many people who are interested.
"It's nothing. He complained about my pseudonym first; the other is to praise me for being good-looking, so that I can live in Chu State with peace of mind." Xue Mei said.
Xiao Jingcheng looked slightly calmer: "You are serious!"
Xue Mei: "..."
Which one of my words is not serious?
Can't the emperor praise me for being beautiful? Or do you think I'm not beautiful?
She rolled her eyes to him.
Seeing that he seemed to be a little anxious, Xue Mei then carefully repeated the words of Emperor Jianhong to him.
Xiao Jingcheng analyzed Emperor Jianhong's tone and felt that he was indeed praising Xue Mei, and had no other intention.
He wanted to keep Xue Mei, but he didn't want to do it too obvious, so he planned to leave Xue Mei's talents to the new king.
"... After the Chinese New Year, the first thing to do is to re-establish the crown prince." Xiao Jingcheng said, "The last crown prince was deposed three years ago.
The country has no crown prince, and its foundation is unstable. Besides, the emperor is old, so he is not worried, but the court officials are worried. The court is very anxious, and the most important thing after the New Year is to establish an heir."
The previous crown prince, of course, did not mean the eldest prince Jiang Feng, but the third prince who deposed Jiang Feng.
After the third prince was deposed, he is now a savage in Lingnan.
"So fast?" Xue Mei sighed a little, "If so, then my elder brother will not have a chance for the time being."
Xiao Jingcheng: "Yes, he really has no chance this time..."
I don't know who the next prince will be.
Xue Mei was quite curious about this.
It seems that the emperor chose the prince, there will be a hand behind it.
The fifth prince and the sixth prince are the most powerful in the court today. The two of them used various means to win over the court officials and the gentry, and many people spoke for him.
Especially the fifth prince, he is smart and kind. Not to mention the court officials, even the emperor has to praise him for his wiseness.
Of course, the Sixth Prince is not bad, and he is also the candidate that the emperor has been cultivating carefully.
"... Let's make a bet." Xue Mei said to Xiao Jingcheng, "I think the eldest prince will recover this time."
"No need to bet, this time it must be the eldest prince's resumption." Xiao Jingcheng said.
Xue Mei: "..."
From this point of view, your straight man's virtue has not changed.
You should follow me and then just talk about it, such as the fifth prince. When the eldest prince really gets back, you will lose something to me and make me happy.
As a result, you have to verify what I said.
Seeing her speechless, Xiao Jingcheng frowned slightly: "What?"
It's nothing, it's almost two years later, and you still don't have a girlfriend.
Xiao Jingcheng was not stupid either, and he quickly figured out Xue Mei's expression.
He was ridiculous and terrified.
Although she kissed her last time, Xiao Jingcheng still didn't know what Xue Mei meant - when they parted, they said that they became strangers from scratch.
Now, can strangers kiss her?
Xiao Jingcheng pondered for a while and held her in his arms.
Xue Mei: "..."
"...If I won the bet just now, what do you want?" Xiao Jingcheng asked in her ear.
Xue Mei: "It's nothing, I just hope you can fully support my elder brother in the battle for the throne."
Xiao Jingcheng: "I had this intention, you don't have to win. If you change one, what else do you want?"
"I still want you." Xue Mei said.
Xiao Jingcheng: “…”
After going around, I returned to the same place and made no progress at all.
She still teased him from time to time, and even wanted to take advantage of him.
It's no different from before.
"...I also want to learn disguise from A Meng." Xue Mei said, "Anyway, I'm idle, so I should be pretty good at learning skills."
Xiao Jingcheng: "This is OK."
Xue Mei laughed: "Okay, then I'll make up. If the eldest prince regains his revenge, A Meng will teach me the art of disguise. If I fail, I will teach one thing too."
"What?"
"She must need it. She has three children. I don't believe she won't have a headache." Xue Mei smiled.
Xiao Jingcheng: "Child?"
"Anyway, you don't have to worry about it. This is a deal between me and her." Xue Mei said.
Xiao Jingcheng: “…”
When he was about to arrive at the gate of Prince Zhuang's Mansion, Xue Mei hugged his waist and kissed him on his lips.
He had a little bit of alcoholic breath, which made people intoxicated, and Xue Mei felt that his heart was about to be soft.
I really wanted to say a few teasing words, but when I thought of his disappointed expression just now and the change he longed for, Xue Mei held back.
If everything is normal, Xiao Jingcheng will feel that there is still no progress between the two of them.
Xue Mei needs to change slowly.
When he arrived at the gate of Prince Zhuang's Mansion, Xue Mei got off the carriage; Xiao Jingcheng did not get off, and the carriage went straight into the palace.
She walked in.
Xiao Jing was worried that someone would peep and climbed over the wall from the backyard of the royal palace.
As soon as she left, Xue Mei immediately went to find Xue Chi and told Xue Chi about all the things she had done tonight.
Xue Chi's reaction was completely different from Xiao Jingcheng's perspective.
He asked Xue Mei a particularly strange question.
